posmenstrual: After menstruation, to the menstrual period. Formed by the post-menstrual prefix (relative to menstruation). See premenstrual , mikveh , gusl haiz .
posdecir: 1st_ These are expressions typical of a misleading discourse, but they are considered true only because it was installed by a political and/or social actor, usually through the media. [N . A. : this definition has some irony. ] See post-truth . 2nd_ Neologism from the word "predict", such as "say someone who foreseed a fact, but after it happened", postdecir. It's almost a mockery of the one who does it, as if he wasn't believed. See predict the past. 3rd_ Contraction of the idiom "Well, say . . . " .
postporno: Name given to a style of pornography that does not have the classic sexist profile, so the woman has a more active role and is not treated only as an object. In this case the post-prefix does not simply mean "later, next" but rather "advanced, updated", and porn is the apocope of "pornography". See post .
posfascismo: In this case fascism is because of the facho, bigoted and overpowering profile of new political parties trying to come to power through the polls as they have no way of doing it by force; but they pass as democratic. See prefix pos- ( "next , new") .
posdictatorial: It usually refers to a post-dictatorship era or government. See post- , dictatorial .
carta superior: Today it is not different from the superscript format in printed typography, although the 'underlined version' is still found in handwritten texts and in some typography, and that unlike the 'superscript' is exclusively for abbreviations. The 'letter' thing is a translation of The English letter, which would actually be "the letters above", but so it is found in some typography books in Spanish. See blown up.
carta inferior: Today there is no difference from the subscript format in printed typography, and although the 'letter' is a translation of English letter that would actually be "the letters below", it is still found in some spanish typography books, a language where it is more common for them to be 'lower number'.
distopía: This widespread neologism is born as opposed to utopia ("non-existent site with an ideally organized society"), also with literary intention that extended to theatre and film. It is a fictional genre where a society (which usually reflects ours) is subjected to totalitarian power, a system that uses it for its own benefit or that of its leaders simulating the good of the population. And it is another mistoped name: as 'utopia' has Greek etymology, the opposite considering its definition is anti-utopia using the prefix 945; 957; 964; 953; ( anti- "opposite" ), and not 948; 965; 963; ( dis- "anomaly" ) . So I would be naming an "anomaly place, with difficulties", and it does not fit very well with the concept. Of course if they used the Latin prefix dis- ( "denial, contradiction") it would be much worse (although it is a variant of Greek interpreting as negative to what is incorrect).
burlesque: Literary genre that from the sixteenth to seventeenth century shows dignified and socially accepted situations in ridiculous and deacralized form. The same sense had for its stage version in the early nineteenth century, although already by the twentieth century it had a mainly erotic and sexual content, which some called neoburlesque to differentiate it from the original. The name comes from French, although it originates from Burlesque Italian ( "with mockery"). See vaudeville, cabaret, music hall, extravaganza.
mostro: Vulgar pronunciation, or childish, or influenced by Italian, of the word monster. It is used to rate something and especially someone very ugly or even dangerous, but also in the sense of "huge, big, important".
mostrario: In Spanish (at least in Spanish) it does not exist; which doesn't stop them from using it as a sampler in some places. Where it is understood to be a mistake, it is used by a word game to say "exposure or collection of musts", especially in its derogatory sense, out of ugliness.
mito: 1st_ History, extraordinary story, of literary, religious origin, or from a tradition. It can be applied as an adjective to a person or thing in the sense of portentous, or as false, as fantasy. It comes from Greek 956; 965; 952; 959; 962; ( mythos "story" ) ; which is also used as a prefix or suffix. 2nd_ Lexical component taken from Greek 956; 953; 964; 959; 962; ( "thread" myths) for whatever the filament looks like. 3rd_ In Peru it is the name of a locality in the province of Concepción ( Junín ) ; Of the Mito Basin, in Huánuco; of a city in Pasco. 4th_ Name of the capital of Ibaraki Prefecture Japan . 5th_ Name of a locality in China's Sichuan Province. 6th_ Name of a locality in Bahir Dar , Ethiopia . 7th_ Name of a Taiwanese locality .
fábula: 1st_ As a literary genre it is a short work, with characters that are usually humanized animals, ending with a moralizing lesson. It comes from the Latin fabbula ( "talk, conversation" ), because the fables were recounted more than acting. 2nd_ Taking the former as a fantastic work, a lie told in an elaborate manner is said 'fable'. See myth (narrative), verse (lie), story (lie).
neomarxista: Supporter of neomarxism.
neomarxismo: I don't know if it becomes a retronym (although that's what it should be called "protomarxism.") It is the initial theory of Carlos Marx, oriented more to philosophy than the later one, clearly political and sociological. This name "new Marxism" began to become popular after the fall of the Soviet Union, as traditional Marxism is closely associated with communism as a political system and not so much to theory. See neo- prefix ( "new" ) .
moyos de sal: See moyo ( unit of measure ), salt ( chemical compound ) . And since we are also a misplaced entry, but with some other example : salt measured in moyos, where by the amount of salt is understood the irony of the example of Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra below.
dar hostias: It is perfectly understood : see give , hostia ( "hit" ), give two hosts.
hacer un voto: See Do , Vote ( Promise ).
ni de cerca: See neither , near ( adverb ), up close (adverbial locution) .
tenencia responsable: Of course, it refers to any possession, use, maintenance that must be done with responsibility (weapons, children, psychopharmaceuticals, . . . ) . It is perfectly understood from tenure and responsible.
